Lowest price paid for a Western Mountaineering bag

It is unusual (maybe twice a year) to find a WM bag that you want (correct model/size) at 20% off. WM bags are generally excluded from sales. It is *very* rare to get more than 20%. Having said that, I picked up a WM ultralite in the good ol backcountry 40% off 'sale'. That was pretty much an error on their part though.

So if you can find your bag at 20% off, go right ahead and get it. The only way you'll get cheaper is by waiting a long time, or buying on Gear Swap.

i saw the caribou on sale a week after i bought it, sucked to see that, but im so happy with the bag i dont care… if you can get it for 20% off jump on it!

I thought 02Gear Shop had an ongoing 20% off deal for WM. I purchased an alpinlite from them a month ago and although it takes a couple weeks to get the bag, the discout did work.

If you want more time to save up, this might be a good option, in the meantime a bag may come up on gear swap for a better deal.

I also used the 20% off at O2gearshop. Like Martin said, takes a few weeks but it was smooth.

If you're going to buy through EMS, check Ebay/Craigslist for EMS gift cards. Last time I made a purchase at EMS I saved an additional $75 by buying a gift card someone was unloading on Ebay. They emailed me the codes to use for the online purchase so I didn't have to wait. Worth a look at least.

Great idea!
